This portfolio is dedicated to teaching primary HSIE within a 21st Century framework and sharing the benefits of Inquiry Learning with other educators. The information presented in this portfolio focuses on creating learning experiences within HSIE that involve multiple opportunities for student participation, discovery, exploration and problem solving. Through sample teaching and learning programs, lesson plans, and links to a range of useful resources, this website will hopefully achieve its aim of passing on the teaching and learning strategies that I believe enable students to "participate effectively in maintaining and improving the quality of their society and environment" (Board of Studies, 2006, p.8)
